Ok, are you saying the Renishaw device uses simple
make/break electrical contacts??

Second, .0002" is big by opto standards.
The simple laser unit in any cheap CD player
focuses MANY TIMES smaller than that, and
has a tiny chip attached to it that gives
amplification and a dc voltage output which
even has a little trimpot to adjust. I have
to fix these mongrels sometimes! ;o)

One of these would detect your 0.0002 easily,
even after the reduction from leverage
from pointer length to mount width.

But once you start getting the "mines smaller
than yours" thing happening isn't it going
to false trigger and stuff due to machine
vibration??
